Os all known methods of reliev ing suffering, sallow and scrawny mankind, nothing has sprung into such instant favor as has the new treatment known as Re-Cu-Ma.

This marvelous remedy is a sys tem purifier and body builder, acQ-- ing especially on th e colon, wherein, according to Prof. Metchnikoff, of the Pastuer Institute, Paris, lies the secret of good health, and within twenty-four hours after beginning the treatment you will notice a marked improvement in your condi tion, as Re-Cu-Ma revitalizes the blood and nerve centers and stimu lates and strengthens the entire body, supplying the necessary iron and vitamines to the vital organs. -(adv-3)’ it. ~ : ' _ STOP RHEUIUTISM ' HUH RED ™ When you are suffering with rheu matism so you can hardly get around just try Red Pepper Rub and you will have the quickest relief known.

I Drink Water to Help Wash Out Kidney Poison If Your Back Hurts or Bladder Bothers You, Begin Taking Salts When your kidneys hurt and your back feels sore don’t get scared and pro ceed to load your stomach with a lot or drugs that excite the kidneys and irri tate the entire urinary tract. Keep your kidneys clean like you keep your bowels clean, by flushing them with a mild, harmless salts which helps to re move the body's urinous waste and stim ulates them to their normal activity. The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood. In 24 hours they strain from it SOO grains of waste, so we can readily understand the vital impor tance of keeping the ■kidneys active. Drink lots of good water—you can’t drink too much ; also get from any phar macist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for years to help clean and stimu late clogged kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in the system so they are no longer a source of irritation, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; can not in jure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink, which even one should take now and then to help keep their kidneys clean and active. Try this; also keep up the water drinking, and no doubfcatou will wonder what became of your kidney trouble and back ache. By all means have your physi cian examine your kidneys at least twice a year. Ichiers. Assisting the hostesses in serving ’ a salad course were Mrs. Carr I Glover, Mrs. B. F.

BELL 11 t- -J ' BOUNTY POLITICS ARE SHOWING ACTIVITY (Continued from Page 1.) esting campaign, and that the voters are to be well canvass before the pri mary early in March. Upstairs at the courthouse, judge William M. Harper is a -candidate to succeed himself as judge o,f the City court of Americus, with so far ias knowft no opposition at this I time, neither has there been any 'authorized announcement for the solicitor’s place in that court. Dan Chappell, the present incumbent who stated today he would not be a candidate for solicitor general, is loked looked upon as certain to ask for re-election. Robert Lane, it is said among his friends, is seriously considering i entering ths race, and it is known i that T. O. Marshall, another prom j inent member of the bar here has I under consideration the suggestion of a number of friends that he be come a candidate for the city court solicitor’s place. Sheriff Lucius Harvey has made no definite statement of his inten tions as to entering the race, but; it is said among certain of his sup porters that he will not be a candi date. This leaves an open -field with a number of candidates ex 'pected to enter this contest. Deputy Sheriff T. L. Summers his friends say, will in all prdbability run for sheriff and there are a number of o hers likewise being mentioned for this important position. Among there are Elton C. Parker and W. P. McArthur and surface indicat tions are that a good many confer ences have been held this week look ing to the formation of a strong sheriff and deputy ticket. So far there appears to be no op position to Clerk H. E. Allen and Deputy Sam Heys, and little or no reference is madfe to the office of county treasurer in street conversa tions, though it is expected Capt H. D. Watts will be a candidate to suc ceed himself in this job.
